For anyone who is thinking of upgrading the video card on these... AMD and NVIDIA changed the way their GPU Bios works. If you have an machine based on first gen i series (like this T7500) then AMD R and RX cards, as well as NVIDIA RTX cards will possibly cause boot issues because of the incompatibility with the legacy PC BIOS. Those cards are designed for PC with UEFI Bios. Some manufactures modded their GPU Bios so that they will work in older machines but if your machine goes crazy after changing the video card this is a place to start.
@@bangdollarsign In mine as well as my friends T7500 we had issues with on RX 550, and also two different RX 570 cards. I also know I have a family member that had this issue on a x58 based Dell using a RX 580 GPU and when I gave him a HD series card it worked again. These video cards all worked just fine in UEFI machines.
been using mine for years, recently started not wanting to post and looping went back to A09 bios and it post every time now. Windows server 2022 upgraded on it as well still trucking
I had a similar one, dual X5680 CPU, 48GB, GTX 1060 6GB, PCIe USB 3.0, PCI Wifi N 150Mbps , PCIe SATA III bootable adapter. It had I think 4x 500GB SATA HDD in it. I added in a Lightscribe DVD Burner and a 240GB SATA III boot drive. I gave it to my cousin when she needed a computer for work. She put a 1TB SSD into it and 4x 2TB HDD and also added in a PCIe soundcard and a Bluray Burner.
I just built one not too long ago for gaming and it works pretty well! I got 2 X5690s, 160 gigs of ram and an AMD RX 6800. Would definitely recommend if you can get the parts for cheap
Am anxious to watch both videos of this build but, first, may I ask if you've had any issues since the build with the PSU causing issues? I've been told by a few people that a standard ATX PSU will cause issues. I've used one on mine to test and it does boot and run well but I didn't have it on for very long. I was only testing because the OEM PSU met it's demise recently. I'd prefer to replace with standard PSU as well but no one can seem to tell me what wattage I'd need or if it will even work.
I have a Segotep SG 950G power supply in it. I haven't seen any issues out of it yet. I only have kept it up and running for about 3-4 days at a time and have had it under heavy loads for about 30 minutes at a time. So far, so good.
@@lloydsourceentertainment Thanks VERY much for the reply. Have been on the fence about whether to replace with another OEM supply or a standard ATX but if you aren't having any issues and it boots fine, then that is very good to know. Especially since standard ATX PSUs are much easier to come by.
@@lloydsourceentertainment hey bro can you please help me i got error in the second motherboard (the small one / riser motherboard) when i power up in the frist of the day it keep beep like this 1.3.2 (times) and after some times power off and on. it workking fine and when i enter bios system board i see cpu 1 and cpu 2 and in device manger i got 16 prossesor ( i think it therads bc 1 of the cpu got 8) but in cpu-z it only got 1 socket and in my pc properties it not say (2 cpu) and the cpu work fine i transform from mother board 2 to motherboard 1 and it work the issuse not in cpu idk what this proplem can you pls help me :(
These use a standard ATX power supply, the only issue that is that the original PSU had VERY long cables and I had to buy extensions for my EPS 8Pin (AKA Xeon) connectors when I installed a 1300w EVGA SuperNova. I ran the cables under the motherboard though as it originally had so that was why.
hey man. how to enable flash drive in dell precision t7500 bios? could you make a separate vid on just that alone? that would make good content for other users such as myself. or maybe you could just reply with a comment instead? which ever would be nice. these t7500 are a BEAST!
@@lloydsourceentertainment yes i'm talking about usb flash drives so that i can boot from it. say if i need to reinstall windows, i will just use the windows 10 that's on the flash drive. but i need to know how to set it up in the BIOS. u ran windows from a flash drive in your video.
@@lloydsourceentertainment ok man. i will be waiting on your vid. btw. what BIOS version are u using? i have version A18 latest installed/updated. not sure if that's why i am unable to boot from a usb. thanks for reply.
I just built one as a home server! 2 Xeon 6 cores, 96 gb ram and I threw in an rx580 because that’s what I had laying around. It’s been doing great!

I have never experienced this issue but will keep it in mind. What GPU did you have this problem with? Is there a workaround? Thanks!

Also, you mentioned you have an 850 watt power supply in it, and I noticed it is modular, but may I ask what brand and model it is?

what the fastest chip set you can run on one of these?
The Xeon X5690. I have two of them in this build, runs great. they are 6 core, 12 thread each running at 3.46Ghz
muito bom!!!

Вот это я понимаю сервер)
Had one of these for years. The thing is LOUD.
It is, surprised me at how loud it can get!
They can yea.
these are actually way quieter than a normal server lol
